Bedework
- Bedework-ing: Jasig Unconference
Bedework developers Mike Douglass, Arlen Johnson, Barry Leibson, and hopefully, many of you, will be attending the Unconference. Two very timely topics which we could discuss at the Unconference are: the new features in the Bedework 3.7 milestone release, and the recent work in CalConnect and OASIS on a web services calendaring standard.
- Bedework-ing: Updated Bedework 3.6 Quickstart
On September 14th, a bug-fix release of the Bedework 3.6 quickstart (v.3.6.0.13) was made available for download at http://www.jasig.org/bedework/.
...
- CalDAV updates
- Fixes to disallow adding of certain characters in calendar system (path) names
- Fix to sorting bug (events were not in chronological order) in public clients
- Fix to recurring events in which instances could be orphaned
- Addition of PostgreSQL config files
- New key generator service available from the JMX console
- Bedework-ing: Bedework 3.7 milestone release
We anticipate a Bedework 3.7 milestone release will be available prior to the Unconference. This release is largely a product of the collaboration between RPI and the University of California at Berkeley, and focuses on personal calendaring. Additionally, BW 3.7 will have much improved CardDAV and addressbook capabilities, and implements the (evolving) CalConnect/OASIS web service interface.
- Bedework-ing: DBMS
We announced on the BW lists that, PostgreSQL is now the recommended OSS DBMS for use with Bedework. The BW documentation will be updated to reflect this change away from MySQL. The postings to the list contain additional technical detail, and follow-up discussion.
- Bedework-ing: Jasig Calendar
Planning and development continue on the BW calendar for Jasig projects. We anticipate this new feature will be available from the Jasig web site prior to the Unconference.
- Bedework-ing: Recent Bedework deployments
We welcome Centenary College, http://calendar.centenarycollege.edu/cal, the Univerzita Konštantína Filozofa v Nitre, http://kalendar.ukf.sk, and the University of Notre Dame, http://calendar.nd.edu/cal/, to the Bedework family.
- Bedework-ing: Calendaring Industry News
"CalWS-Rest Restful Web Services Protocol for Calendaring" has been published as a CalConnect Proposal. This specification provides a RESTful web services protocol for calendaring operations, and was developed in conjunction with the OASIS WS-Calendar technical committee. Mike Douglass served as editor for the CalConnect document, which is available at
